Seeing that Ye Feng had killed Han Diaosi and many other imperial guards in succession, Zhang Yuanlei was very anxious and quickly stepped forward to say something.
"Sect Leader Ye, no matter what, you shouldn't have killed Han Diaosi. He came representing imperial power."
"You've really messed up this time!"
Actually, Zhang Yuanlei didn't mean anything by it.
He was simply worried for Ye Feng.
Even he couldn't understand why the Emperor would suddenly issue an edict to kill Ye Feng.
There are too many suspicious points here.
"Shut up!"
Ye Feng shouted, his eyes flashing with cold light.
If it weren't for the fact that they had fought side by side before, Ye Feng would have slapped him to death long ago, he said with a cold snort.
"What good is imperial power? If you anger me, I'll kill you anyway!"
Afterwards, Zhuge Wuwo and other veteran war gods were all terrified. They would never dare to utter such treasonous words.
Ye Feng ignored Zhang Yuanlei and the others, and led Jiang Yinuo and her group toward the Ziyun Heavenly Palace Manor.
After Ye Feng left, Zhuge Wuwo picked up the broken Shangfang sword from the ground and said in surprise.
"This sword is fake."
“I suspect there’s something fishy about this imperial edict. Yuan Lei, call the cabinet immediately to verify this.”
Zhang Yuanlei made several calls to the cabinet, but no one answered, which puzzled him.
"Strange, there are people on duty in the cabinet 24 hours a day, how come no one is answering the phone?"
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
His intuition told him that something must have happened in the capital.
Thinking of this, he quickly called the three elders.
The cabinet was headed by three Grand Secretaries who assisted Emperor Xia in governing the country, each holding a high position and wielding great power.
Even Luo Yuantai, the Minister of War, was not as powerful as them.
Strangely, the three cabinet ministers could not be reached by phone either.
Zhang Yuanlei's heart skipped a beat, and his gaze immediately turned serious.
"Oh no, something terrible must have happened in the capital."
"Otherwise, we wouldn't have been unable to contact the three elders."
Beside me, Zhuge Wuye also made several phone calls to his old friends in Beijing.
Fortunately, these people's phones are still reachable.
After several phone calls, the ins and outs of the matter were basically clear.
Zhuge Wuwo's expression gradually darkened.
"As expected, something happened in the capital. I learned through rumors that Shangguan Zhaixing, the deputy hall master of the Dragon Soul Temple, instigated the position of hall master of the Dragon Soul Temple and colluded with the new hall master of the Qingcang Temple, the Golden Wheel Dharma King, to kidnap three cabinet elders."
"The whereabouts of the three Grand Secretaries are now unknown. The cabinet has completely fallen into the control of Shangguan Zhaixing and Jinlun Fawang, and has been completely cut off from all contact with the outside world. No one knows what is going on inside."
Upon hearing this, several veteran warriors around him were furious and began to curse Shangguan Zhaixing.
"I've known Shangguan Zhaixing for a long time that he's a scoundrel. How dare he rebel against his superiors! He deserves to die!"
"The Dragon Soul Temple is in trouble now."
"Yes, the Dragon Soul War God is missing, and the Dragon Soul Temple is now leaderless."
"Alas, first Cao Meng rebelled, then Shangguan Zhaixing rebelled. This year has truly been a year of many disasters for our Great Xia."
"Mr. Zhuge, what is the current situation in the capital?"
Zhuge Wuwo continued speaking.
"Now, everyone in the capital is in danger, and a sense of panic has enveloped the entire city."
"The main passages in and out of the capital have been blocked by the experts of the two temples, and all nine city gates have been sealed off, prohibiting anyone from leaving."
"I've already found out everything. Han Diaosi is also an accomplice of Shangguan Zhaixing and his group. He forged the Emperor's decree and wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Ye Feng."
"He deserved to be slapped to death by Ye Feng."
"Let's go, we must return to the capital immediately, His Majesty is definitely in danger."
The group left in a hurry.
at the same time.
Ziyun Tiangong Manor.
Jiang Yinuo had just arrived when she received a call from her trusted subordinate and hurriedly spoke to Ye Feng.
"Xiaofeng, something has happened at the Dragon Soul Temple. I have to go back immediately."
Ye Feng asked.
"What happened?"
Jiang Yinuo said urgently.
"Someone took advantage of my absence to usurp the position of Palace Master, and kidnapped three elders of the Cabinet, attempting to rebel."
"That Han Diao Temple just now was very likely forging an imperial edict. Keep that in mind."
Ye Feng didn't care about any of that.
What the current emperor's attitude towards him is equally unimportant.
"Then let your three senior sisters accompany you, so that you can look after each other."
"Once I've completely healed Zhou Xiaoke's injuries, I'll head over and join you."
"Alright."
The two sides said their goodbyes.
Ye Feng walked through the manor gate.
At this moment, Dongfang Sheng, Qin Ming, and the others also hurriedly returned from Haidong Port.
Situ Fatty and Xiahou Ba also returned together.
Lan Yuzhui was at the very back of the group, walking with light steps.
Wearing a deep blue Hanfu, she stood out from the crowd, her flowing sleeves giving her an ethereal and otherworldly air.
The old weasel had its hands behind its back, its whiskers almost touching the ground. It strode around with its head held high, trying its best to project the majestic demeanor that a mythical beast should possess.
Moreover, after the fierce competition with Xiahou Ba, Lan Yu, and Fatty Situ just now.
It has successfully assumed the position of elder of the Blood Mist Sect.
